My tears are a profound expression of my heart
When pain overwhelmed my soul because I didn’t get a chance to look into
Your eyes,
to profess my love or protest your goodbye.
When misunderstandings prevented you from seeing my devotion, when I truly began to grow,
when trust mattered,
when faith mattered,
when promises were broken,
and words left unspoken
My tears are a profound expression of my heart
When there’s this passion, that I’ve always feared,
that I’ve never felt,
that lives in the core of my soul,
this spirit that is YOU
My tears are a profound expression of my heart
When this worthlessness that I always feared,
that I’ve always had,
that I never missed,
returned to haunt me,
as I fell from the pedestal you so gently placed me upon
My tears are a profound expression of my heart
When frustration prevailed and your being vacated my existence,
With no heart felt explanation,
but word ignited by the flames of anger,
fueled by the company of disappointment,
carried by the winds of temptation
When every dream that I dared to dream dissolved in a sea of uncertainty
My tears are a profound expression of my heart
When I awakened to dark clouds surrounding me,
loneliness encompassing what use to be,
you living our life without me!
When this nothingness that I have now that you’re gone haunts me relentlessly
and you wonder why I cry
